Rebel Wilson reprimanded for touching museum relics

Actress Rebel Wilson was scolded by staff at London's British Museum for touching ancient relics.

The Australian star and several of her castmates in new movie Night at the Museum: Secret of the Tomb enjoyed a dinner at the London tourist attraction following the movie's premiere in the city last week (ends21Dec14).

However, they were reprimanded by staff after manhandling several of the priceless artefacts, breaking a 'no touching' rule.

Wilson says, "(After the premiere) we all had dinner at the British Museum, which was amazing. To be having dinner in this room and there's all these ancient vases and ancient such and suches... and we touched a few things that I think we weren't supposed to touch! We got in trouble."
